UCS Hellmaker posted:I think the delete post button is more a VB thing that due to the archives does very bad things to the DB, remember ZDR deleted many of his posts when he had his falling out with lowtax and almost every thread he posted in had to be remade because the threads started having phantom pages pop up and posts were being lost. VB probably at the time wasn't made to have an archival function and it was built up without any idea what it may entail if you delete posts. this isn't what happened zdr was working on a delete posts function to try and get rid of posts because around this time was when some website was really big into scraping old posts for personal details and people wanted something more than just moving threads to mod forums for privacy he did a test run on the script using his old posts and it actually did work then shortly after in a completely unrelated issue, the load balancer for the forum hosed up and started eating posts in topics, which is what caused the phantom pages this was months before all the poo poo with lowtax started

By this timescale I am 3 and so cannot be held responsible for my own actions. Like, say, making GBS threads on the annoying coworkers desk.

Carcer posted:Ah but Big Calendar would throw its weight around and have anyone pushing the idea locked up. Its been mainly opposed by Abrahamic religious groups that because the creation story took place over 7 days believe the week is divinely ordained. So their religious week would be offset by one day each year (two in leap) the way ours is now which would mean that for Haredi Jews for example Shabbat would slowly drift tp be say Wednesday making things more inconvienent. Theres more advanced stuff like moving the days around so that which months have 31 is standardized with the first month of every quarter having 31 days and then the next 2 having 30. Also its 364 days. I thought for a second that 365 was the figure that included the leap year.

OJ MIST 2 THE DICK posted:this isn't what happened What? This was public and a lot of people saw it. Lowtax made a thread making fun of Shmorky's ex in GBS, linking her facebook. ZDR was very vocal in the thread about not wanting the thread open, how it was doxxing and in bad taste. The thread was closed and re-opened several times. After Lowtax declared the thread was staying open no matter what they got into it in the thread itself. ZDR melted down and told Lowtax publicly to fire him and then all of his posts were deleted. The phantom page issue being a completely unrelated forum load balancer that affected only threads ZDR had posted in, exactly when he deleted all of his posts, would be an extreme coincidence. The forums also going down within an hour of both of those things happening would also be another extreme coincidence. I don't know if you got your information from ZDR himself but maybe the thieving drug addict isn't a reputable source on his own meltdowns, especially when one took out the forums for most of a day.

Apparently I've been out of the loop because I dropped GBS so hard after 2.0 that I didn't know it was revamped again until yesterday reading this thread. Looking at it now it still doesn't seem like my kind of thing but it's definitely better than, well, that.Dell_Zincht posted:Cool that means I'm like 10 years old Malachite_Dragon posted:By this timescale I am 3 and so cannot be held responsible for my own actions.
